BDcraft Community Rules

Do not redistribute textures - It is against the Terms of Use that using the assets from the main resourcepacks created by Sphax isn't allowed for remix/other resourcepacks or for commercial use.

You can make changes and share them privately with friends (i.e. via Skype, etc.). If you want to share changes publicly you should make a patch that only includes the changed files.

You can do what you like - although it's nice to get permission from the patch artist first - with mod patch textures.

Post in English - you can also post in another language if you feel it is easier to get your point across, but you must in the least provide an English translation even if you just use Google Translate.

Be polite - respect others, and their opinions, don't swear, demand or 'shout' for updates, etc.

Don't spam - posting useless remarks, images (such as "I like this post" images), or links to other irrelevant websites is not allowed. This also includes linking to referral pages for things like "Get me more space on xxx" even if they aren't monetized. If you have issues with bandwidth/space find a better host. A post should generally be more than a few words long and should also not just be a picture (unless it's a relevant texture).

Use spoilers - if you're quoting a lot of text or posting large images wrap them in spoiler tags.

Don't post your email address - Email addresses are too easily scanned and picked up by spambots and this is basically just a safety precaution. Use the Private Message system instead.

Be aware of sectional rules - some of the sections have their own extra rules:

This is a title

SubtitleShow

The subtitle tag is used to split up a topic into sections that are considered part of the same subject. For example in this thread the Warnings section is considered part of the Rules section. In some cases this is also used as a stand-alone section header depending on the purpose of the thread.

This is a subtitle

Bold / Italic / Underline / StrikeShow

The Bold, Italic, Underline, and Strike tags are used to emphasise parts of text, drawing attention to them. You'll notice that bold is used to emphasize the characters used in the format code ('b' for bold, 'i' for italic, etc...). Please do not use these formatting techniques excessively, but only when absolutely necessary to emphasize significant parts of text.

[quote="Author"]This is a specific quote[/quote]
[quote]This is a quote without an author[/quote]

Example:

Author wrote:This is a specific quote

This is a quote without an author

CodeShow

You've probably noticed throughout this thread, that the bbcode is displayed in a gray box. Those grey boxes are the result of the code tag. The code tag allows you to write bbcode that is not parsed by the forum. This is also a good way to post logs or any kind of text that needs to retain its spacing.

You can't nest code tags inside code tags.

ListShow

The list is used to, as the name suggests, separate items in a list. This is demonstrated at the beginning of this thread with the rules. There are 4 kinds of lists: A-Z, a-z, Numeric and Bullet points; take a look at their examples below.

Both the section and horizontal rule are used to partition the subtitle, depending on the organization of the thread. It can also be used to partition a spoiler as in the Guide in the Help Center. Wherever you need to divide groups of same-subject information, that's where you would use these tags.

This is a section

[size=20]This is small text[/size]
[size=100]This is normal text[/size]
[size=200]This is large text[/size]

Example:This is small textThis is normal textThis is large text

Right / Center / JustifyShow

These tags are all alignment formatting and generally not used. First we have the right tag, which I can't think of a single use for, as nothing needs to be right-aligned. Then we have the center tag which can be useful to center images, but centering text is entirely useless. Lastly, we have the justify tag which I suppose can be nice if there are any posts with long disertations, but that's rare.

This is left-aligned
[right]This is right-aligned[/right]
[center]This is centered[/center]
[justify]This is some long text to exemplify the necessity of a justify-scoped text-alignment archetype. Here is a second line just to add insult to injury as we continue to exemplify a tag which is almost never used, yay! As you'll notice, the text is spaced just enough to meet the edge of the right margin; in other words, the text is justified inside its alloted space.[/justify]

Example:

Belowis what it would look like if the justified paragraph above wasnotjustified.

This is some long text to exemplify the necessity of a justify-scoped text-alignment archetype. Here is a second line just to add insult to injury as we continue to exemplify a tag which is almost never used, yay! As you'll notice, the text is now no longer spaced to fit to the edge of the right margin; in other words, the text is not justified inside its alloted space, oh noes!!

Url / LinkShow

The url and link tags are nearly identical, the only difference being that link tags will open a url in a new tab. Url tags however, will open a url into the current page. It is recommended that you don't use url tags at all, since the majority of our linked content here are downloads. It can be annoying going to a download page which replaces the main page and then realizing you can't use the browser back button without re-activating the download.

There are two ways to create a link, one is with the address itself and the other is with a custom name for the link, as demonstrated below.

This is basically an artistic version of the basic image. The photo tag will resize your images to thumbnails and put an aesthetic border around them. When the images are clicked, they'll open like images and allow you to cycle through them as described in the image section above.
